The thing I love the most about these memes is they're seriously effective.

[–] TehBamski@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Are they though? I feel like they just make those that found Trump and Elon to be really weird and rotten, have a laugh. I don't know anyone conservative, that has commented on these kinds of memes, to me or others I know.

Or did you mean effective in pulling some political stance BBJ reversal moves?

It's effective in driving a rift between Musk and Trump, as many news outlets are reporting that they've been contacted by the Trump PR Team to clarify that Trump is in charge after the "President Musk" taunting began. Trump's superiority complex and vanity is absolute, so being upstaged by a positionless goon will make him very unhappy.

Although, I concede that we don't know what actual longterm effect if any this will truly have.

Ugh, the childish insecurities are not befitting of someone in charge of anything, let alone a country. Dude is seriously a loser. Despite all that money and power, at the core, he's just an insecure loser.

Oh I see. That's a solid take on the situation IMO. Haha yeah. Time will tell what comes of this shit show being put on by goons, and loons, set on the verge of collapse, USA. Let dumpster fires light their way.

With those two divas fighting, it's gonna be several dumpsters full of illegal fireworks. The inept president of the us vs the comparably inept richest man in the world riling up the same cult against each other. Do you think they realized they were in a highlander situation before they got in bed together?

Think about how effecrive they could have been before the election.

Instead the Dems played patty cakes with the republican party.

The hell? You're in the wrong comment section lmao.

Maybe. I dont think the memes are really that effective promoting any kind of material change.

We're already past the election, and Trump is riding high as a "very popular" politician.

Anything the Left says is basically ignored.
